Real Life Trading - YouTube Content Creator & Producer

Content Creator is needed in Provo, United States.

Client: Real Life Trading

Location: Provo, UT

Contract: Freelance

Job Description

This is NOT a traditional videographer position. We’re looking for someone who understands YouTube at a deep level and can help create videos that people actually want to watch. They should be comfortable directing while filming, improving hooks, planning better stories, capturing stronger B-roll, and making sure every video is built to perform on YouTube. Think of this as a creative partner rather than just someone holding a camera.

Requirements

Responsibilities:

• Work alongside our CEO multiple days each week in Spanish Fork, UT.
• Capture “Week in the Life” content by following CEO’s daily schedule.
• Film educational/top-of-funnel YouTube videos.
• Plan content before filming.
• Brainstorm video ideas every week.
• Develop titles before filming.
• Help develop thumbnail concepts before filming.
• Build shot lists.
• Direct CEO while filming.
• Capture all necessary B-roll.
• Help improve storytelling.
• Think about pacing and retention while filming.
• Review YouTube analytics.
• Recommend improvements based on data.
• Collaborate with our editor to ensure the final product matches the vision.

Editing experience is a bonus, but not required. Producing great YouTube content is far more important than editing.

Ideal Candidate:

• Be obsessed with YouTube.
• Understand viewer psychology.
• Think in hooks, curiosity, retention, and storytelling.
• Be comfortable giving direction on camera.
• Know when to push for another take.
• Understand thumbnails and titles.
• Be creative.
• Be proactive.
• Be confident enough to challenge ideas if they believe there’s a better approach.

Skills:

• Proficiency in photography, videography, and video editing software with experience in broadcast journalism editing tools preferred.
• Strong written communication skills with expertise in journalistic writing, copywriting, and proofreading.
• Bilingual abilities are a plus to reach broader audiences effectively.
• Extensive knowledge of social media platforms including YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook for content dissemination and engagement.
• Excellent storytelling skills combined with research capabilities to craft compelling narratives.
• Experience in digital journalism, television broadcast editing, news broadcast videography, and article writing is highly desirable.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong communication skills to collaborate effectively within a creative team and engage viewers authentically.
